Afenyo-Markin disowns anti-LGBTQ+ bill post, says social media account was compromised
Minority Leader and Effutu MP, Alexander Afenyo-Markin, has distanced himself from a viral social media post criticising Ghana's Human Sexual Rights and Family Values Bill, stating that the comments were published after his account was compromised. The post, which circulated widely on social media, suggested that laws criminalising individuals based on their sexual orientation or who they choose to love do not protect society and should not be enacted by any Parliament in the "civilised world."
